On the Other Side of the Wind
Against the indigo velvet skies
The sweetly scented nightly breeze
Sends leaves falling, rustling
Allowing moonlight thru the trees
Through curtains softly billowing
The moonlight steals its furtive glance
Flirting with silky ebony shadows
Performing their nightly ritual dance
On the other side of the wind
Whispers softly echo in her mind
Beckoning her…
To listen to their voice
Telling her his love she’ll surely find
The wind chimes in spiral curves
A moment that’s timeless stirs her soul
To a crystalline awakening in her heart
Welcoming imbuing intrusions to console
In quiet moments she breathes him in
His hand in hers, feelings linger
A graceful dance to walk a path
Feeling his touch upon her fingers
A trail of tears tinged with sighs
Thoughts of him entrench the dark
A restless soul needing warmth
In quiet moments he invades her heart
Will she find him once again…
On the other side of the wind?
